Police in North Yorkshire warned drivers not to travel unless it was essential as widespread flooding affected major routes including the A64 and A1(M).

Traffic officers said there was a significant amount of standing water, making them hazardous.

Roads Policing Sergeant Neale Rees said: "Hours of extremely heavy rain have taken a toll on our road network, and in many places water is pooling faster than it can drain.

"This includes major trunk roads across the region.

"We are now advising motorists to avoid all non-essential travel until conditions improve.
